| May 1, 2017 at 16:48 | comment | added | McGucket | I'm dealing with problems that say "shear couple acting on plane is clockwise" this is making me 😕 confused.. I'm attaching the problem of the image in question.. thanks till now | |

"Clockwise" is meaningless; one shear couple is clockwise, and the other is counterclockwise (for an object in static equilibrium: efunda.com/formulae/solid_mechanics/mat_mechanics/images/…). Both couples are needed to make up $\sigma_{xy}=\tau_{xy}$. | |
